The One Fine Baby Event






Last Saturday, after chilling out for a bit too long (coffee, pyjamas etc) I made a split second decision to get on the train and head in to the Sydney Technology Park to go to the One Fine Baby event, and I'm so so glad we did!  It kept us out of the cold for like 4 hours, Gus got to meet Peppa and Dorothy and Sam (he was the 2nd yellow wiggle for a while), and most importantly got to see (and buy) some AMAZING independent and handmade vendors.  It was so refreshing to be in a place where everyone was interested in the same decor and ideas and fashion that I am!  
Lots of creative types and families.
It was fantastic!  I kept some of the vendors cards.  They are inspiring in themselves.
It is no secret that I want to move into the online world and I'm in the process of setting up my own shopfront, so meeting and talking to so many people that are already 'living the dream' was definitely and eye opener.  I'm just itching to really get into it.


That's what I came home with.  I'm surprised that the above where all that came home with me as I seriously could have bought 
one of absolutely everything.  It was all THAT good!



These wall decals are from This Little Love. We are totally inspired to re-do Gus's room and these will just be the icing on the cake!


I could not not get this tee from Infancy.  I love it, Gus loves it.  We're all happy!


The laundry bag is also from Infancy.  A pop of neon for Gus's room AND a place for his dirty clothes. 
(we are into the I want to change myself faze so lots of clothes)


I LOVE this Maisy book from The Super Cool. Gus has already started to use it while we all have dinner, and he will actually 
sit with us 
until we have all finished, just doodling away!


Pretty cute, huh?


I finally got my hand on one of these.  I have been loving from afar for a long time now.  I haven't figured out what to store in it yet.  
But it's kind of awesome all by itself!

Below is a few snaps of what we got up to while we were there.  I would recommend this event to anyone who is pregnant 
or has young kids or bubs.  Everyone in the family was entertained and Gus got to go on TWO trains, so little boy's day made!













Hope you are all having a great weekend!  We are off to a Scottish Kaylee tonight!
My FIL is the drum major in the Sydney Thistles Pipe Band.  They are so much fun.
Lot's of dancing and laughing and being proud of our Scottish heritage, and my FIL cause he kind of rocks on the drums!

A Productive Day




Today was one of those days when we got s*#t done!  I love those days, don't you?
I always daydream that I will spend all day on the couch, watching foxtel, drinking coffee, eating yum, naughty food, but being busy, 
and up early is really better, isn't it.
After walking up to the local coffee ( insert hipster) shop, we hopped in the car drove to Bunnings 
(where Gus slept!!!- ahh that blissful hour when you can wander at your leisure)
spent too much money on plants and then took a rested Gus to the park for a run around.







 Things that happened at the park:  1. Gus had a ball and pretended to be a pirate, we realised that the park is awesome 
(good equipment and good view) and I fell, and I mean fell off a swing for the first time in my life.  Ross laughed for a good 5 minutes.

Then it was home to plant the plants and hang stuff up on the wall.
I've got some photos to share of our dining room area if you would like to have a sticky.
I'm really happy with how it has turned out and is the first room in our house that fells finished. 
(this is our 3rd year in our home.  Procrastinator much?)


















All the furniture and knick knacks have been collected over time and sort of just ended up together in this room.  The Parker phone table, sideboard and fold down desk are all thrifted and there is a list below if your interested of where we got everything else.

Yellow Vase - Target (no longer available)
Small Candle - Kikki K (no longer available)

I'm so glad that we have waited and decorated and put together a room that we absolutely love!  
Colourful, bright and happy, I can't wait to spend more time in there with my little family.

What's your favourite room?
